Ebara Densan, an electronic systems manufacturer, sought to integrate design, production, and testing procedures to reduce cycle times and improve quality control. With help from Meister Corporation, a Microsoft partner, the company used Microsoft Visio 2010 together with a custom module from Meister to tailor a product development system to fit its unique needs. Now, by connecting diagrams and drawings in Visio 2010 to the data sources used in its production process, Ebara Densan is able to rapidly develop Microsoft Silverlight–based monitoring applications to manage projects more efficiently, pinpoint errors faster, and respond with greater agility to customer change requests.
